Through Ball Diagonal Run and Finish

Play a 45-degree angled pass into a rebounder at the edge of the box, make an explosive diagonal run across the penalty area onto the ball, and drive a low shot across the face of goal. Coach prescribes 10 repetitions on the right foot and 10 on the left foot.

Key points

  • Accelerate immediately after playing the pass into the rebounder
  • Take a positive touch on the diagonal run to line up the far post
  • Target the strike across the goalkeeper toward the far side netting

Common mistakes

Shooting near post where the goalkeeper has smaller angles to cover, rather than aiming across goal.
